Re: [Cfrg] Recent SM2 and SM3 drafts update

If this is a valid transcription of the standard, it should be fine.
But the place you want to go is the IPSEC and TLS WGs to get it into
implementations.

Note that this is not a recommendation for usage: I haven't validated
parameters or the algorithms, and SM3 in particular looks sketchy.
(It's an MD-style hash, in a world where many have fallen). Has there
been a lot of analytical attention devoted to it that I've missed
hearing about?

Sincerely,
Watson Ladd
